About this trial

With rising incidence of celiac disease(CeD) (3% of population), there is an urgent need for practical, efficient and usable application that can feedback to families and providers about their ultra-processed gluten-free food (UPGFF) consumption as well as to help families identify where they may be having unintentional gluten exposure. The investigators propose to use MyMedDiary, a researcher driven platform dedicated to streamline and enhance dietary data collection, to first validate that it can accurately and efficiently identify gluten-free foods which are ultra-processed. The investigators aim to provide feedback to families on potential sources of gluten exposure as they transition to a gluten-free diet(GFD).
